Property Wire Optimistic About Florida Housing Market
According to a report by Property Wire, Florida is set to be one of the bargain hotspots of 2010 for real estate investors with some properties selling for as little as $47 a square foot, according to a new report. " All this means that there has seldom been a better time to get into the Florida property market. According to most local experts, prices have nowhere to go but up and a home in Florida bought at today’s bargain prices should prove to be a laudable investment five years from now" said Charles Peerless, director of Winkworth International.
